Straight to my idea. Its simple.
I think you should be able to change your wrestlers name after you retire.
Dont you think alot of people will get bored of thier names after about 7 months?? I Think so.
Especially me, i hate my name and would like to change it when i retire.

So lets see what the rest of you think

You retire ? My ass! ;)

I think it is a good idea... should add some spice to the game!

Post by: Coneman(325)2004-12-30 14:33:22

Yes but leave it optional of course

I hate my name too!! I wanna change it to just Coneman :) lol big change there :P

I might change mine to my assistants name Chubby Lad. ;)

I think its a good idea.

Maybe kinda like the prodigy of whoever your wrestler was great idea. :)

Post by: Div(17156)2005-01-01 10:02:28

See alot of people wouldnt mind a name change :)

Post by: gatcholio(28366)2005-01-03 20:49:39

Maybe an option to change your name every six months and take on a different personality. Isn't that what real wrestlers do?

Oh like new angles?

So Peter should change your name whenever he sees fit, change your angle, and change your characters background. If you don't meet his expectations with this new persona he can remove your match rights so you can only give horrible promos. He could demote you down leagues and say you need work. Or he could even make you fake an injury and have no access at all for a few weeks. Wrestling realism rules.

On a side note, I am kinda getting tired of my name too.

I wouldn't mind a name change either

Post by: Fangblast(13923)2005-01-04 01:26:16

For me itís the little things which really make a game great. Being able to change your name when you retire would be a nice feature.

Post by: lazy(27024)2005-01-04 03:19:15

Ya what Mistah said is a gr8 reason a lot of promoters change wrestlers names like Mark Calloway to The Undertaker. Sorry if I spelled the first name wrong.

Post by: Div(17156)2005-01-04 06:41:47

Hmmmm People actually like one of my idea's.. : D

Now Lets just hope Peter reads this post..

Post by: amw(17598)2005-01-04 18:24:01

I don't know guys. You know the newbies would be changing their names all the time, people wouldn't be able to keep track of their usual opponents any more, it'd just get confusing. Plus there could also be imposters - KOVOW changes to Mr Happy and then someone steals KOVOW... It just doesn't work very easily :( Maybe once you retire and restart, but other than that i dunno.

Post by: Kueller(13231)2005-01-04 19:54:13

you didnt read carefully enough - he proposed changing your name only after retiring.

The old name would have to stay protected though

Post by: The Legend Killer(21778)2005-01-05 01:27:37

Maybe if someone changes their name, the used name cannot be chosen by anyone else.

Post by: lazy(27024)2005-01-05 04:57:33

How bout, they have a real name/ wrestler name, the wrestler name could always be changed, but the real name stays, that way you can tell if someone is an imposter.

Post by: m_carta(37500)2005-01-07 00:28:58

Just check the wrestler's ID number to find out if he's an impostor.

Post by: N3w Moon(43003)2005-01-07 01:54:36

mayby if you could change your name every other month and have a "Formerly known as" link that show a list of your old names.

Post by: Div(17156)2005-01-07 06:55:25

N3w Moon i like your idea about Formely Known list. But 1 month isnt long enough.. Once you retire you should get the choice

Post by: Red Neck(40420)2005-01-07 09:39:44

yeah i agree with this idea but should only be available when you retire

Post by: Div(17156)2005-01-13 12:36:48

Cone said he asked Peter if he could add this and Peter said he doesnt like it.. So i guess ill be quiting when i retire my wrestler..

Post by: Coneman(325)2005-01-13 12:59:43

:O You cant leave!!

Post by: insane clown(11577)2005-01-14 02:46:22

well yes he can as it aint up to you :s

Post by: Div(17156)2005-01-14 06:09:23

lol.. seriously.. how cant you like the idea.. people will eventually get bored of thier wrestler and want a change. Dunno how Peter wont add it..
Havnt got 1 no in this post..
And how is he gonna get people to donate when he doesnt add any of thier idea's.

Post by: Coneman(325)2005-01-14 11:54:14

Post by: insane clown(11577)2005-01-15 02:07:09

This is my first post since the forums switched over, mainly due to the fact that I forgot to link my Forums account to my VOW account (Balls to the Wall).

I, for one, do not see myself ever getting sick of my name. However, having the option to change it upon retirement (which does not look like will ever happen either), would be a good thing.
